    Help with friendship
    Basically my two best friends have been going out for a few years now. I've got a pretty tight circle of friends and we all used to be together pretty much all the time.
    However the two friends who are going out now spend all their time with each other or sometimes with other people. We have moved around plans, work shifts etc to fit in with them but we just don't get a response. This is our last year of school and I don't want it to be like this.
    So do I tell on of them - if so who would take it better: the guy who is pretty emotionally tight and easily annoyed. Or the girl who is lovely but gets over worried a lot. Or do I just leave it and let things separate.

    u could always spread rumors and get them to separate...:rolleyes:
    though I don't openly encourage you to do so.
    If you do, just make it a bit inconspicuous, eh

    Why would I do that? I may be pissed off a bit at them but their my friends and I still want them to be happy? You sound like a brilliant mate

    It may not be the answer you want to hear. But I can't help but see that Zubz91 has a point. Make the most of your final year, and let things happen. If you try and force the friendship to work, it may continue for several months- but will you all be happy, and will it last when you leave?

    I know it's hard, but just try and see how things naturally happen. Besides you never know, you might just drift back together again in the end
